Yesterday was my dad’s birthday! We made him a German chocolate cake, his favorite, and had supper with him and mom. We went to their house so they didn’t have to be out in the cold in the dark. It’s just too cold for that. We are blessed that both Dad and Mom are in good health. They still live on their acreage and although they rent out their farm ground and only have two goats as far as livestock, they stay active keeping the timber going and keeping the place up. It takes a lot of work to live on an acreage and I can’t imagine Dad living anywhere else. He wouldn’t know what to do with himself! The two pictures above are of Dad, Ronnie Rae, and his twin sister, Konnie Kae. We lost Aunt Konnie to cancer a few years ago and miss her greatly. I am so thankful my Grandpa and Grandma had so many pictures taken of them. They are a treasure to have!
Later we went out to the shop and put together the chicken coop. We were actually able to put the whole thing together without any arguing – a small miracle for sure!
